Ahhh I hadn't actually noticed that option. I'll have to be more aware next time I import!

I mean, it feels like a somewhat unnecessary feature. Understanding now why it's grabbing the entire library makes it feel even more like it's over-reaching. I could just go into RetroArch and set these things up vs. having LB try and commandeer it in a non-overt way. My complications however are now furthered by having to make an account over on the Libretro forums for a different issue. They're telling me that the issue I'm having (controller mapping is jumping all over the place when launching two specific emulators default installed through LB) is probably being configure-overriden by LB. I literally have not messed with settings for these emulators in either RA or LB, and I know LB doesn't actually have controller config so that makes even less sense as-to their explanation for it.

Nope. I DID update it originally in LB which caused it initially. But now it just keeps happening regardless of me updating it. I've actually uninstalled/reinstalled RetroArch like 6 times due to other issues I was troubleshooting and I STILL have it totally repopulate the core list after opening Launchbox. All I'm doing in LB is updating rom lists.

Wait, which feature? I'd happily turn something off if it means it wouldn't do it.

Absolutely awful. Granted, I'm sure the cores don't take up really any space, but it's obnoxious having to scroll through a list of 100 emulators I won't use for the 3 I will.

Launchbox seems to be auto installing EVERY core that RetroArch has. I'm not sure why, or how. What am I doing that's causing this and how do I stop it?

Ahhhh nice! Everything is working now. Thanks, and thanks @Retro808!

I've had the files pointed directly at the .cue. It was only changed to try a different method in my troubleshooting. It has also been set to RetroArch the entire time. I do honestly appreciate the help, very much. I just feel like we're on the 4th time of me stating that I have these things set. That being said; I had NO IDEA those cells were clickable! Seems a bit unintuitive. That feels like exactly the fix though (I'm hoping) but unfortunately, Beetle Saturn doesn't appear to be on the list? Is it possible to manually add it?

So as per my previous posts; I had it pointed to just the .cue and it wasn't working. I decided to re-scan for it to show all files and it was ABLE to try and use .bins & Yabause, and it was actually trying to start up games again. My issue is that with it pointed to only .cue files, using RetroArch directly as the emulator (As far as I can tell, I've only had it set to this) and RetroArch internally only having Beetle, it simply does NOTHING when I launch the game. The only emulator in Tools>Manage>Emulator is the RetroArch.exe. HOWEVER, if I go in to edit the RetroArch.exe emulator and go to Associated Platforms, every console has a list of cores that I do not have?

Development in the issue: When I delete all the catalog info and just let it scan the whole folder again, it brings the .bins back and tries to launch the#1 bin file with Yabause still. I don't have Yabause, but it's still opening the console somehow? It black screens after the Sega/Saturn logo.

This was actually one of the first things I did to try and correct it because I noticed WHILE it was working (originally with Yabause), that it was loading the first .bin file. After swapping RetroArch to Beetle and correcting the .cue files, it no longer opens anything. I even tried switching it back to the .bin files and nothing.

Trying to launch Saturn games in LB. I have Beetle installed on RetroArch and if I use Retro, it will launch and run the games no problem. Launchbox will not do anything other than show a loading mousepointer for 2 seconds.
